What I've been watching


I watched the first season of Jessica Jones a while back.  The idea of people with super powers not fitting in with the superhero types (i.e. Batman and Superman) is interesting.  It's a little darker than what I normally watch, but the acting is good, and I love David Tennant.  His performance as Kilgrave is excellent, although the rest of the cast is good.  David's time with the show is done so I probably won't continue watching it.


I finished the first season of Hercules:  The Lengendary Journeys.  Admittedly the show can be a little cheesy, but that isn't unusual for shows from the 80s and early 90s, and Kevin Sorbo is likable.  I like Greek and Roman mythology, so the concept of a Greek demi-god helping people is interesting.


I'm almost finished rewatching the first season of Murder, She Wrote.  This is a favorite show from the 80s.  Angela Lansbury has a lot of class.  The show was filmed in Northern California coastal area (Mendocino), which is not too far from San Francisco, and the setting is pretty.

Debbie Reynolds



I was saddened to hear about Debbie Reynolds passing, and so soon after her daughter passed away.



I especially love Singin' in the Rain.


I enjoy Tammy and the Bachelor tremendously also; the song Tammy is pretty.  RIP.

Carrie Fisher







I was saddened to hear of Carrie Fisher's passing.  I loved her in her role as Princess Leia in the Star Wars movies.

The Holidays

The Christmas season is here, and I did some Christmasy-type stuff last weekend.

I went to the annual Christmas play at Anaheim Baptist Fellowship on December 3.  This is the second year I have gone to this production and I enjoy it tremendously.




I went to the Banning House's annual Victorian Christmas on December 4.  I hadn't been to the Banning House in a while, so this was fun.  I didn't stand in any lines, I just walked around looking.


 

I love the gardens.



And the park next to the house is pretty.
